On this segment of HarperAudio!,
Sir John Gielgud reads the sonnets of William Shakespeare.  These sonnets 

were probably composed between 1593 and 1601, but were not published 

until 1609.  Some of the poems are addressed to a young friend, who may 

have been the Earl of Southampton.  Others praise the beauty of a 

mysterious "dark lady" who has not been identified.  This reading is 

accompanied by music performed by the Elizabethan Consort of Viols and 

the Taylor Consort of Recorders, Leslie Pearson, Conductor.
